We cleaned up the side bar

Shared by Bill • August 20, 2024

Smile has improved *a lot* in the last few years. But our navigation didn't keep up. It became bloated with too many items. So we did some spring cleaning to make the most commonly used settings easier to find, while moving less commonly used settings out of the way.

Here's what changed

  • Branding has moved to Settings
  • Customer emails has moved to Settings
  • Bonus campaigns has moved under Program
  • Performance is now called Analytics
  • On-site content now has everything related to Smile on your website

If you're having trouble finding things, just ask. We're happy to help.
